K2 - Book Of The Dead (2005)

Click to listen sample

Any time you see Allan Holdsworth on a record you have a warranty. As always his work is superb and this time it mixes perfectly with Spock's Beard's Ryo Okumoto's Moog and piano parts. The late Shaun Guerin (this production in fact was recorded a couple of years ago) couldn't avoid the obvious comparisons with Peter Gabriel, but his overall effort is excelent. We need to underline Yvette Devereaux's work on violin fusioning with Holdsworth's guitar in some pieces we haven't heard since his colaboration with Eddie Jobson in UK.

Straight forward classic vein progrock mixed with contemporary fusion (some reminiscent of the project Vertu). A very good addition to your collection.
